Ta Da! I'm here! Ok....now what? Well...I guess I tell you about my upcomming weekend.

I have till tomorow (Friday) to get my youngest son enrolled into a summer camp if I want to have him have his own worker to go with him (he has special needs which I'm sure I will chat about at some other time), doesn't sound so bad but I only found out yesterday, so this is rather short notice. Then tomorow night the family goes to see my daughter in her school play, should be good (she's in middle school). Expensive tickets tho, its costing us $32 to go to this. I just can't afford this right now, but its for dear daughter, so I guess we'll go a little hungry later instead. Friday during the day J has to work at his parents doing landscaping. I have to run around and do errands all day. Off to this office then to that office, then to the mall, then sign kid up for camp, then make millions of calls; god, does it ever end?! Then after the play and all kiddies are tucked in bed. I have to dig out suitcases and start the packing process. Hell I'll probably be too tired and wait till morning.

So Saturday morning; pack suitcases for trip to Vancouver (3 days, 3 nights). Gotta go today 'cause the ferry prices are much cheaper on Saturdays. Get grandparents pick up youngest son; taking the other two with us. Bus our way to the ferries, then bus our way to Aunt N and Uncle C. Find supper along the way. SLEEP. Then we have Sunday to play around in Van. I'm thinking of maybe a picnic somewhere. Then comes Monday, the whole reason we're in Van! We check into hotel sometime in late afternoon. Go get booze and celebrate no kids. O yea, Aunt N and Uncle C are watching them for the night! Then meet friends for dinner and we all go to The Cure concert at GM place. Woohoo!! This is the second time only to ever see any bands in a large venue. We have Excellent seats by the way!! So the plan is to go to the after party at some club and get pissed drunk, stumble to our hotel room (shit, still gotta book that too!). Then the next day, go pick up kids and proceed to make our way back to the island.

Sounds fun, but god this is stressful! I'm not much for disrupting my usual schedule.


Well ok, I've procrastinated enough.
